Windows 8 keeps showing mass storage controller as not installed in device manager

[JamesUK]

Hi, I have recently installed windows 8 on my dell studio 1749, the laptop is around 2 years old, specs are in my sig (not changed to os yet in my sig)

Anyway on windows 7 everything was installed fully with no issues, now after putting windows 8 on, i cannot seem to install the mass storage controller, i have tried all the original drivers i had.

It keeps showing with a yellow ! saying that the drivers aren't installed, i tried finding a driver through windows update but no luck there either.

can anyone suggest anything?

thanks for the replies up to now

paradigm - under storage controllers it says: microsoft storage spaces controller

if i remember right, on windows 7 i think it said scsi something (could be wrong)...

the hardware id's of this unknown device says:

PCI\VEN_1217&DEV_8130&SUBSYS_041B1028&REV_01
PCI\VEN_1217&DEV_8130&SUBSYS_041B1028
PCI\VEN_1217&DEV_8130&CC_018000
PCI\VEN_1217&DEV_8130&CC_0180

thanks

Thank you very much for your replies, i used the driver which broken hope gave and it has worked and has indeed installed as the o2 card reader.

thanks
